Summary
‘A warm and beautifully evocative story of family and secrets, love and heartache, with a devastating twist’ Alex Brown, bestselling author of A Postcard from Paris
When your heart belongs in two places, can you ever truly find home?
Brooklyn, New York,
Bea has grown up in the heart of the Irish community, always hearing stories of home. When she discovers a letter from her younger self, written years before, it sends her deep into her own family history.
Kilmore Quay, Ireland.
Years earlier, Lucy Mernagh leaves her much-loved home and family in search of the New York dream. The Big Apple is a world away from the quiet village she grew up in, and the longing for home aches within her.
When Bea uncovers a shocking secret, it takes her back across the water to Kilmore Quay, where – finally – long-buried truths will come to light. But fate has one last twist in store…

Beautiful
I very nearly gave up on this story, the first few chapters were slow and didn’t grab my attention. I’m glad I persisted, the story of B and her friends/family in the present, ran parallel with Lucy and her friends/sister in previous decades. It’s as the two align that true beauty of this story ignites, with a twist at the end which made me cry. Definitely a slow burner worth sticking with
